“As you go, make this proclamation: ‘The kingdom of heaven is at hand!’”When we share the good news
of Christ, it is not in our favor if people accept it, and it’s not in our
disfavor if they don’t.
Bring the healing that he himself brought to people.
“Cure the
sick, raise the dead, cleanse lepers, drive out demons.”
The kingdom of God is all about flourishing physically, emotionally,
mentally, spiritually.
“Do not take gold or silver or copper for your belts” targets for robbers and brigands; have nothing to steal.
“The laborer deserves his keep.”
We are to do our best to witness, the rest is up to the grace of God and
the free will and responsiveness of individuals.
